16. 15 Hard Truths on Being a Coach/Mentor/Service Provider
Oh my sweet chicken, we have a tough episode ready for you today. It’s tough - but if you’re ready to succeed in business, you’ll still need to listen! Through running my own two businesses (one as a mentor, one as a web designer) and working with thousands upon thousands of clients, I’ve spotted these 15 experiences that every single business owner has in common, the things that might come up, the ebbs and flows, the not-so-sexy, not-so-shiny things that are inevitably going to happen and I want to shed some light on them for you.
